We spent a great weekend together with friends and I’m working on a post about that but for now I’ll share some of the fun Hannah and I enjoyed together after getting home yesterday afternoon.

After supper we went over to visit with Nana and Papa after missing our weekly Sunday lunch. Hannah loves spending time with her grandparents and it’s just not the same when we have to go extra long without a visit so went over to their place last night.

Papa took Hannah for a walk. I love seeing them hanging out and Hannah has such fun with him. There are so many games that just the two of them share together and it’s precious to stand back and watch love in action.

This shows why Papa often needs a nap after Hannah visits!

When it began to cool off we went inside where Nana shared a story with Hannah.

This picture amazes me! Hannah and I have coloured together for a number of months but I’ve never talked about colouring in the lines. It’s something an adult naturally does but I love how children colour with abandon so I’ve never shown her that there is an option to colour within the lines. That being said, this picture blows me away as it shows how much she silently watches what is happening around her, soaks it in and does her best to imitate it. I often have to remind myself that she’s only 26 months old! Wow!!

On a side note about colouring. We had to have a little chat last week as she created for me her first un-solicited work of art on our bathroom door. Oops!

When we left Nana and Papa’s last night I decided we’d end our fun weekend off with a special treat: ice cream and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse!

Good to the last drop.

Hannah and I shared the very best weekend together! A wonderful combination of time for just the two of us together and then other times surrounded by the love of family and friends! Ah, now that’s the way to celebrate a long weekend!

You're lucky it's taken Hannah this long to discover the wonderful canvas of blank walls and doors. :) Meigan's been doing that for ages. All I do now is hand over a wash cloth and she then cleans it up (Ok with me having to do a final touch up).
